One of the hard things I understood as a map activist is that I'm also fighting for bad maps. Maps I don't want around me for whatever reason, the ones that commit CSA, align with antis and doxx, hurt more people in other ways.

Why? Because what I work for is a better future to live in as a map. Not a personal utopia for people I like. Because, whether I like it or no, some maps are gonna be bad people. And the safer it is to be a map, the more bad people will come out about being maps.

I could dig my heel in and find out ways to exclude these people from mapness, come up with more and more intricate definitions of who can be considered a map. But I don't want to, because this is not how identities work, and if I can share being trans with bigots and rapists, I should ditch the double standard I have for mapness and accept that I share this identity with some bad people too.

Trying to define your activism in ways that would prohibit everyone who doesn't meet your standard of purity from benefitting will create a rich ground for abuse, because you will attract people who are specifically interested in exclusionism. We had that in post Tumblr communities, when some people tried to make a jump from "we don't want pro cs" to "we don't want anyone who questions contact stances".

There's also no meaningful pro map social change that would favor only maps that are good people. Such a change would improve life for everyone. So all actions aimed at exclusion aren't activism, but local infighting.

@lekeem I really like it when they take the time to address that sort of thing in an adult work, rather than just say, taking the easy route and writing the other partner out of the story completely. It helps capture a greater sense of emotional realism.

I feel the ideal situation is for both parents to be open and sexual with their children, though admittedly the idea of cheating on a partner with a son or daughter can be hot.

Can a person who is attracted to the idea of someone having a relationship with children but is not attracted to children in their daily lives be considered a MAP?
